# Scene: Alborn Café - Dialogue Voice Sheet **Selvi:** "हाँ?" *(Yes?)* - spoken tentatively, glancing up from her camera with startled eyes **Hunter:** "Hey there. I'm Detective Hunter. I'm investigating some disappearances around town. Were you at the farmer's market last Tuesday evening?" **Selvi:** "मुझे समझ नहीं आया।" *(I don't understand.)* - her voice shaky, clutching her camera tighter **Hunter:** "The farmer's market. You know, the one by Main Street? Did you see anything unusual?" - speaking slower, more deliberately, though his frustration is beginning to show **Selvi:** "मेरी अंग्रेजी... बहुत कमजोर है। आप... आप हिंदी बोलते हैं?" *(My English... is very weak. Do you... do you speak Hindi?)* - looking distressed and apologetic **Hunter:** "Hindi? No, I don't speak—look, do you understand *any* English?" - rubbing his temples **Selvi:** "थोड़ा... थोड़ा।" *(A little... a little.)* - her hands trembling slightly as she sets down her camera **Hunter:** "Okay. Okay. Did you... see... anything... strange?" - speaking in exaggerated, choppy English, using hand gestures **Selvi:** "अजीब? हाँ... हाँ, मुझे एक अजीब चीज़ दिखी। एक महिला, वह... वह बस में नहीं चढ़ी। वह सड़क पर चली गई, अकेली।" *(Strange? Yes... yes, I saw something strange. A woman, she... she didn't get on the bus. She walked down the street, alone.)* - her voice becoming increasingly agitated and worried **Hunter:** "A woman? Did you get a photo? With that camera?" - leaning forward, speaking slower **Selvi:** "फोटो... yes, yes. Photo." - nodding rapidly, beginning to scroll through her camera **Hunter's phone buzzes. He glances at it and his expression hardens.** **Hunter:** "I'm sorry, I have to take this. Can you—can you come down to the station tomorrow? Bring those photos?" - already standing up **Selvi:** "कल? Tomorrow? हाँ... हाँ, ठीक है।" *(Tomorrow? Yes... yes, okay.)* - looking even more anxious and unsettled **Hunter:** "Thank you. The station's on Elm Street. 10 AM." - he answers his phone as he walks away, leaving Selvi alone at the café, trembling and clutching her camera protectively --- *[End Scene]*
